It is ridiculous to expect they would employ a snake handler on the off chance the MIGHT see a snake and need it removed. That's like saying I should have my doctor on hand every second just in case i have a heart attack.
No it's like saying if you were trying to get pregnant, you should have a obgyn because it's the responsible thing to do. In their profession they know they might encounter venomous snakes because of where they're filming. It's the same as if you were planning to conceive a baby, it would be irresponsible not to have an ob Dr because you know what could happen. It's not apples to oranges here. It's the reality of being an adult and a responsible and respectful human being.
